The Birds / Gli Uccelli for #spookysaturday episode 9

Good evening spooky saturday-ers! 🦇 I haven't got a story today because I've been busy looking at gardens and petting cats! 🐈 🌿
So, instead, here's a photo I sent to my friends showing them why I wasn't going out that nignt - because there is nothing scarier than having to get out of your pyjamas when you're all snuggled up for the evening. 🌙 (I mean, obviously there is because look at the state of the world!! Let's just pretend!)
What're your favourite horror movies? 👻 ✨

The Graveyard Shift / Il Turno di Notte for #spookysaturday episode 8

Night guard at a rural cemetery wasn't exactly the job you were looking for, but these past six months have actually been great. Nice and quiet, nobody to bother you, decent pay!
Tonight's the same routine as ever: check all the gates are locked, quick sweep along the outer walls, note any signs of damage, walk your regular routes and watch out for anybody who shouldn't be there. Same old same old, but you don't mind, you like the familiarity.
Oh, someone’s left the lights on in the crypts again. Better turn them off. As you get closer, you hear sounds - muffled voices and footsteps. Great. They’d warned you about teenagers sneaking in for a dare. Heading down the stairs, you call out "Okay, fun's over. Time to go home".
No answer. You walk down one of the corridors. You can hear footsteps and voices ahead of you, so you speed up and turn the corner quickly. Nothing. Damn, these guys are fast.
"You're not in trouble. You just can't be in here now".
More mumbling and shuffling. You turn corner after corner for – what? – 20 minutes? Has the crypt always been this big? You decide if you leave the door open, they'll eventually go home. You try to retrace your steps, peering down corridors – you don't remember it looking like this before. Did you take a right or a left here? Don’t remember this dead end…
You realize that the voices and footsteps have stopped. There’s now complete silence. Then the lights go out. Pitch black. You start feeling your way along the walls.
The voices are back, but they’re no longer muffled.
"It's our turn to chase you."
And the footsteps are clearer too. And faster. Much faster.

Sala Rusconi

In the Archiginnasio there is a room called the Sala Rusconi. Named after Pietro Giacomo Rusconi (1865-1916), it contains many rare and valuable books and manuscripts which were collected by him. These were donated to Bologna after the death of his wife Luisa Verzaglia in 1919 - as the couple had not had any children. You unfortunately cannot go into the room now but you can peek through the iron bar door from the Sala Stabat Mater.
The portrait you see over the door is Rusconi himself.
I wanted to give the photo the feel of an old-fashioned illustration to compliment the treasures and antiquities in this library.

(Per quelli che sanno un po' di dialetto bolognese, non trovate un po' ironico che ci sia una sala così piena di saggezza e storia e si chiama... Rusco... ni. 😂)

My wife Loes in the Royal Museum of Fine Arts, Antwerp, Belgium, 2024.

My firts post on Pixelfed must of course be a photograph of the two things a hold most dearest in live, apart from my two lovely daughters, and those are: my wife Loes and the mother of all arts…architecture.

It is said that the mirror is the symbol of imagery or of awareness. The mirror has the ability to copy the visible reflections of the world in its own figural reality. Scheler and other philosophers associated mirrors with thought because it is a mental instrument that is the reflection of the universe and enables you to observe yourself. Frequently mirrors emerge in legends and fairytales, showing what happened in the past or what will happen in the future or what is happening now from a very far distance.
The mirror always tells the truth. Without need for the masks we people wear to protect ourselves, mirrors reflect only what they see. In a way mirrors are able to perceive the soul of ourselves, as well as of the people and things surrounding us, as they are without cover. This is partially due to the fact that what we see when we look into the mirror is actually not reality. Rather, the reflection in the mirror is an inverted version of the world we live in. Or is it the other way around?

#Corridor - Mimi

#Montreal based post punk art rockers took a turn more experimental and #psychedelic with their 4th album and I'm 💯 here for it. Absolutely the right vibe for tonight, plus the cover art (illustration of a derpy longhaired cat?). Every song is doing something different, doing it well, and in a good way.

#Stereolab x #deerhunter vibes? Immediate purchase.
